    Abstract:
    Protein X (PX) previously isolated from human pancreatic juice is an inactive protein of 14 kDa which has been shown to be a degradation product liberated by proteolysis of 19 kDa precursors. Polyclonal antibodies against P19 and PX were prepared in rabbits by injection of the two proteins purified by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. These antibodies reacted with a form of trypsin 1 (DFP-trypsin 1) which was shown to be partly proteolysed. Immunological studies were performed with pancreatic juice proteins and partially purified trypsinogen 1 using antibodies directed against PX, P19 and trypsin 1. The results of immunoprecipitation and immunoadsorbent chromatography show that these different antisera recognized a protein of 25 kDa. Immunoblotting has permitted to characterize this protein as a trypsinogen 1-like molecule which would be a form of inert protein generated by uncontrolled trypsinogen activation.
